36 mins in and I cant listen to any more. Bad putters simply move their hands too much and cant sense the speed. NO one needs to anchor their stroke. Practice putting with a line drawn on the ball, if it doesnt roll end over end then the face angle is moving around because you are rotating your hands and or swiping it. Just hold the grip in the palms, very different from how you hold your other clubs. If you can roll it on the line then practice with one ball and varying distances to develop feel for distance, it will be easier to adjust for every possible speed later. Putting is hard because greens and not perfect surfaces so do your best and have fun. Theres no secret and we dont need 1000 hours of training to do it, you just need to get comfortable to putt your best.

Rob picked Brooks to win the PGA and hit the nail on the head, while Knudson’s DJ pick was pretty close. Rob hit a school bus with a golf ball and we talk about some new clubs that are going to be tested in the next couple days.
